Acne can be painful and persistent, sometimes hindering ones confidence. In My Own Skin Med Spa is proud to offer a variety of treatments aiming to correct and prevent acne, as well as acne scars. Acne affects everyone, and in different ways, so it is important to talk to a provider about what treatment may be right for you and your skin type!
What is acne?
Acne may occur when the hair follicles become plugged with oil and dead skin cells. Acne is seen more among teenagers, but it can affect people of all ages. Acne comes in different types, such as blackheads, whiteheads, pimples, or lumps. Talking with your provider will be key in creating a maintenance plan curated to your skin type.
Treatment Options
AviClear™ is the first, and only, FDA-cleared energy device for the treatment of mild to severe acne. Acne is formed when the sebaceous glands, which secrete sebum, become clogged. AviClear™ uses 1726 nm wavelength to treat acne at the source, selectively targeting the sebaceous gland safely and effectively, while suppressing sebum production.
HydraFacial™ Syndeo is a patented procedure that combines the next generation of cleansing, hydra-dermabrasion, degrees of chemical peel, painless suction extractions, hydration, and antioxidant protection plus several options for special boosters.
The Clear + Brilliant device is designed to deliver powerfully precise laser energy over the desired treatment area, resulting in a refreshing boost. When treated, new skin will start to form within 24 hours of treatment, but will remain covered by the old superficial layer of the skin.
Acne scars are formed quickly but can take a long time to recover from. Some patients may find success in a few treatments or a skincare product, while others may need a combination of everything. Luckily, In My Own Skin Med Spa offers services and Medical Grade skincare lines to help correct your skin.
